Baffling.
Well they do need the money more in Havana. But yes, that is nonetheless baffling on some level.

You could not be any more wrong. Miami has a huge latin jewish population. Venezuela, Colombia both have decent jewish populations and many of them moved to Miami. Cuba had a pretty large jewish population too and most of them now live in Miami. And Argentina has a large jewish population and many live in Miami. There are plenty of hispanic country born jewish people out there. I will say the majority of the jewish population is orginally from NYC or Eastern Europe. But there is a good amount of hispanic jews in Miami. People are always surprised when I say this, its something most people dont think exist unless they live in Miami.
